This is the 1:10 scale Tyrannosaurus rex model designed for scientific accuracy by paleontologist Stefano Piccini, a 20-year veteran of fossil expeditions. In an effort to create a faithful replica of the "tyrant king," Piccini oversaw every detail of this model's development, from the first rough clay structure to the final production of the mold. Even the coloration of the bones has been carefully selected to imitate a fossilized skeleton. This 54-piece model snaps together without glue, and at 43" long, it turns any room into a natural history museum. The instruction diagram doubles as an informative poster, and it comes with a 16-page booklet describing the characteristics and environments of this awe-inspiring Cretaceous beast. Ages 6 and up. 18" H x 6" W x 43" L. (7 lbs.)

Parts of the dinosaur are easily distinguished. This dinosaur was a very complex machine in it's day! I hope I can find more models of dinosaurs like this. You really have to muscle the parts together. Once I get it assembled I am only going to glue it in 4 sections so I can move it in one box. Carrying out the door in one piece will take up a lot of room.
